Indonesia farm uses drone to transport workers

🧑‍🌾 🚁A farmer in Tuban, Indonesia has gone viral after a video showed him being airlifted 1.5km from his farmland to a parking lot by a heavy-lift drone.

The director of farming company PT Bina Tani Makmur Jombang told local media the unusual flight was just them "trying things out" and that only willing workers took part. When asked about the video, Indonesia's Agriculture Minister Amran Sulaiman on Jul 9 called the stunt "quite creative" and said using drones to transport people isn't an issue—provided it's done safely. #indonesia #indonesianews
